Chromogranin A enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay

Chromoa is a highly sensitive monoclonal antibody-based assay used to identify increased protein levels in serum when a neuroendocrine tumour is present. The most common neuroendocrine tumours affect the adrenal gland, the pancreas and the digestive track.

Chromogranin A is an increasingly essential analyte for the detection and monitoring of such tumours as well as prostate cancer, which can evolve into an aggressive neuroendocrine form.

Chromoa offers the same reliable results but in an ELISA format. This new kit features a longer shelf life and offers easier stock management, making it a convenient time- and cost-saving alternative. Particularly suitable for laboratories that do not use radioactive kits, ELISA methods have been used for quantitative analysis for several decades and can be adopted by any laboratory.
